Zusammenfassung: | Accurate average bit-error rate analysis of asynchronous bandlimited binary direct-sequence code-division multiple-access (DS-CDMA) systems in Nakagami-m fading is studied. The fading is assumed to be flat and slow. The spectrum raised-cosine (SRC) and Beaulieu-Tan-Damen (BTD) pulse-shapes are employed. A new method which combines the characteristic function (CF) method with the improved Gaussian approximation (GA) is proposed for evaluating the BER of bandlimited DS-CDMA. A substantial computational complexity reduction is achieved. The well-known standard GA, Holtzman's simplified improved GA, and improved Holtzman's GA methods are also considered. The accuracies of the approximation methods are assessed using Monte Carlo simulation. For a system employing a deterministic sequence for the desired user and random sequences for the active interfering users, a CF method is employed to derive precise BER results. The new BTD pulse outperforms the SRC pulse in all situations |
